- Check that the user is enabled for Exchange properly and assigned the required product licenses.
- Check that the credentials has not been changed from the Active Directory, because of that the user will not be able to sign in or if the outlook app is already opened, the outlook will not update the inbox.
- Check that the Outlook profile is setup properly.
- Check that if the mailbox storage quota of the user has not crossed the limit.
